Heyyy, I'm Cassie. I'm a senior at SHS and this is my third year on the newspaper staff. You probably know me anonymously from the Mountaineer social media accounts. I don’t have many hobbies to tell you about because I'm actually pretty boring. Anyway, if you ever wanna know way too much about President JFK or Jeffrey Dahmer, I’m your girl. Some fun facts about me, I like to eat Jalapenos stuffed with cream cheese and takis in my free time, one of my kidneys is shrunken, and I was baptised by a convicted murderer (convicted after I was baptised).  Okay ttyl ;)
